Debbie Moya question

Debbie, I saw that you are almost to your goal in a little over a year. I started out a little heavier than you did -- I was 373. I was wondering how much you had lost at 6 months out. I have lost 108 lbs. so far, and am trying to get an idea of where I might be at a year out. Do you mind sharing? I would appreciat it. BTW, I had Dr. Baker, too. He's awesome! Thanks! Tammy' 373/265/170??

Tammy, I'm not Debbie but I weighed 370.5 on my surgery date on Aug 5, 2003. On my 1 year anniversary I had lost 176.5 lbs. I was 109 lbs at 6 months. My loss has slowed down a bunch but people keep thinking I'm losing. I go down a size about every month. Ain't life grand? Vicki

Thanks for replying, Vicki! Wow, we are running very close. I would be estatic to be down 176 lbs. by my first anniversary. That would put me right at about 200 lbs. and I wouldn't lack much getting to goal. You are doing awesome!! Life is wonderful!!! Tammy

Julia, Sorry it has taken so long to answer. My hard drive and mother board crashed on my computer. So I have to answer message board at work and lots of times I can't. But the answer to your question is I had lost about 120 at 6 months out. Remeber an exercise program is very Important! It will help alot with skin and clothing size. People think I'm about 120 when really I'm 142! And that is all toning and tightning. I'm in a size 5 NOW!!! I was in a size 26/28 Plus. I actually look pretty darn good in a pair of Low Rise jeans! WOW. Yes I bought a pair I didn't think I would ever do that, But who say's there just for teenagers!!! Hugs Debbie Moya Dr. Baker 9/22/03 354/142/(135) New goal! I've reached old goal of 147!!
